5 reasons to buy the 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan

1. Stow ‘n Go seats 

If the school run is just the start of your busy day, the 2020 Grand Caravan has the functionality for daily errands too. Need to move boxes and sports equipment, or transport your dogs in their crates? The third-row Stow ’n Go® bench folds down into the cargo floor, while the optional second-row Stow 'n Go seats (standard on SXT trim) can quickly fold down into under-floor storage bays, leaving you with 140.3 cu-ft of total cargo space when you need it.  

2. Lots of space 

Seating up to seven across three rows, the 2020 Grand Caravan offers plenty of space for relaxing and getting comfortable. Legroom is generous throughout, with 40.7 inches up front then 36.5 inches and 32.7 inches for the second and third rows respectively. Personal items can be stowed in the door cubbies, and passengers across all rows have cup holders close by too. 

3. Entry-level minivan 

If affordability is your key concern when shopping for a minivan, the 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan is an entry-level model that should tick your boxes. The SE base trim offers plenty of useful features if you’re looking to get on the road without much fuss. You’ll get standard triple-zone manual climate control, a rearview camera for those tight parking maneuvers, and a six-speaker audio system for karaoke sing-along sessions with your crew. 

4. Driver convenience package 

Full of features that will get everyday use, the 2020 Grand Caravan’s optional Driver Convenience Group package is worth looking out for. This package adds triple-zone automatic climate control and heated front seats. For a tidier cabin, rear overhead storage is also a welcome addition, while the package’s ambient lighting and second-row sunshades encourage your youngest passengers to rest easy on longer journeys. 

5. Entertainment features 

Traveling together can mean music, devices, and plenty of talking across all three rows. How about an easy solution to take up their attention? For rear-row loved ones who only settle with their favorite cartoon or movie playing, the 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan offers a rear entertainment system as an available option across all three trims. The system includes a nine-inch roof-mounted screen and a DVD player for your passengers to watch their favorite shows — all while you focus on the road.
